DCS server-admins: please adhere to a common sense gaming industry policy as most server admins throughout the industry do. (After all there's enough hostility on the internet already which really doesn't help anyone. Thanks.)

The “Fantasmagoria” pod can display more radar types than the Kh-58 can target. It can’t lock onto (according to what I’ve read) emissions in the meter wavelength range which is where your untargeted radars most likely operate.

According to the Russian wikipedia, the Kh-58's seeker head can target RADARs within the range of 1.2 - 11 GHz (NATO D band to J band).

The 1L13 (1L13-3?) and 55G6 (55Zh6?) both operate in the NATO A/B band; according to this the 1L13 between 0.18 - 0.22 GHz, and I've seen the 55G6 described as a VHF RADAR, which tops out at 0.3 GHz; both are significantly below the operating range of the Kh-58's seeker, so it shouldn't be able to target those.

According to this though, the Tin Shield operates in the NATO E band, which is 2 - 3 GHz, so it should fall within the range of frequencies the Kh-58 can target.

I'm not sure what frequencies the L-081 Fantasmagoria B pod operates on, but I wouldn't be totally surprised if it had a wider range of frequencies than the Kh-58.
